Rookie does not provide hard losses against Chet Holmgren without thunder (March 5)

Zach Edey and the Memphis Grizzlies came up in a crucial regular season game against No. 1 team in the Western Conference, The Okc Thunder. Edey kept his place in the starting line -up and joined Morant, Jaylen Wells, Desmond Bane and Vince Williams Jr.

He did not deliver for the grizzlies and ended the game with only six points on 3 of 8 shots from the ground. Zach Edey recorded nine rebounds and a steal in 19:50 minutes and ends with a plus/minus of -10.
